Parmesan Chicken Sticks

Recipe from Barefoot Contessa Family Style Cook Book

This is a delicious recipe! It's fun to put them on a skew stick for the kids too!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast

1 cup all purpose flour

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 extra large eggs

1 cup seasoned bread crumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Butter

Olive oil

Directions:

Lay the chicken breasts on a cutting board and slice each diagonally into four or five large strips.

Combine the flour, salt, and pepper on a dinner plate. Combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese on a third plate. Dredge the chicken breasts on both sides in the flour mixture, then dip both sides into the egg mixture and roll in the bread-crumb mixture, pressing lightly to coat.

Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large saute pan and cook the chicken strips on medium low for about 3 minutes on each side, until just cooked through. Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the chicken breasts.
